Foreigners often make some strange mistakes in Chinese when they study the most difficult language— —Chinese. We try to analyze typical sentences to correct these errors.
Xīnɡqī yī hěnduō rén qù shénme wán?
False: 星期一很多人去什么玩？
Xīnɡqī yī hěnduō rén qù shénme dìfɑnɡ(nǎ'ér) wán?
True: 星期一很多人去什么地方（哪儿）玩？
“什么”单用时，用来询问事物。跟在动词“去”后面的，应是表示处所的词语。这个句子有两种改法；或者在“什么”后加上“地方”一类的词；或者删去“什么”，改用“哪儿”。
什么 alone is used to inquire things. The verb 去 can only take objects of locality. There are two possible ways of correction: put 地方 after 什么, or use 哪儿 instead of 什么.
